A traditional, but still very effective, industrial marking technology is a micropunch. As part of its portfolio, LIFTEC supplies the Czech and Slovak markets with equipment from the world’s leading manufacturer COUTH, which is known for the development and production of high-quality and reliable equipment that meets the latest technological standards. Unique technology – Micro-impact marking COUTH MC 2000 micro-point systems offer a reliable and effective solution for permanent marking of products. It is a pneumatically or electrically driven device that, using precisely positioned microdots, enables the printing of a wide range of characters, shapes, 2D codes and images. Micro impact marking can be used on almost all types of materials (metal, plastic, wood, etc.). Highly durable and highly visible markings can be applied even before the surface treatment or coloring of the material. With the help of this system, it is possible to mark extremely hard, uneven and irregular, flat and curved products, which, thanks to the possibility of precise adjustment, are not deformed or excessively stressed. Due to its minimal weight and size, this technology is particularly suitable for integration in small areas of production lines. In its portable version, it will facilitate the marking of products that are problematic from the point of view of transport due to their larger size and weight. Long service life, maintenance-free operation and simple integration into production lines without the need to connect a PC create an unrivaled tool for permanent marking of products. Durability of marking, easy integration and low costs Thanks to this technology, we can achieve permanent marking visible even under a layer of paint or other surface treatment. Compared to other technologies, micro punch marking has very low operating costs. A great benefit for the customer can be the possibility to choose a micro punch from four versions – integrated into the production line, manual, as a separate stand-alone workplace, or combined. A large print area of up to 250 mm x 170 mm enables complex and high-quality marking. In addition to alphanumeric characters, the device also enables the printing of 2D Datamatrix codes, logos, graphic characters and images. A wide range of accessories ensures easy connection and increased marking efficiency (rotary clamping, pneumatic approach of marking heads, micrometric clamping of the label feeder, etc.). MC 2000 Superfast is the last generation of micro-strokes. It is characterized by high marking quality and, thanks to the globally patented technology of the y-axis swing, it is considered the fastest on the market. Another type of MC 2000 is the so-called Scratching (engraving), the main advantages of which are very quiet operation, precision and high quality marking. Marking durability, ease of integration and low operating costs are essential aspects for many industries and the MC 2000 not only meets but exceeds these requirements.
